Arriving at the parking lot of ilan Lake, Wang Xue was lying in the car while Xiaocao quietly waited beside her.
Seeing Yang Yan approach, Xiaocao imdiately said:
"Wang, I've just deleted her recent mories."
Xiaocao opened his mouth again, wanting to say sothing, but finally swallowed it back.
"What's wrong? Do you have sothing to say?"
Yang Yan asked.
"No, Wang, I just think that since you're here for a vacation, you shouldn't be dealing with these matters. Moreover, I feel the Hidden World people are becoming more active lately. Earlier, you told us to recall the other ten swords, but now not a single one has returned."
"Gongsun Ruyan encountered Qiongqi and had a fight. In the middle, Duke Herbert the Seventh appeared. Neither side gave their all, but Gongsun Ruyan won't be coming for a while."
Xiaocao frowned, worriedly speaking.
"It's okay, it's just Red Dust Heart Refining; there's no need to worry so much. Let everything go as it will."
Yang Yan said indifferently.
"But Wang, everything is chaotic now, completely different from before. In the past, no matter how fierce the fights in the Hidden World were, they wouldn't affect the real world."
"But now, the real world has beco a target for the Hidden World too. The closer the people, the more cautious you have to be. Just a mont's carelessness, and they all beco leverage against you."
Xiaocao, after so thought, continued to pour out his concerns.
Yang Yan looked at Xiaocao strangely, frowning and asking:
"What's with you, saying so much today? Do you think I'm getting too close to the people in the real world?"
Xiaocao nodded lightly:
"Yeah! I'm really worried about you. Even for you, it's not possible to completely guard against those Hidden World folks' sneak attacks. Now that you have more people you care about, I'm afraid sothing might happen to you."
Yang Yan suddenly laughed:
"Haha! You're overthinking it, Xiaocao. Maybe you've forgotten, but I was originally a person from the real world! I've never thought of myself as a part of the Hidden World."
"I don't mind that strange and colorful life, nor do I hate those battles. On the contrary, I even miss those thrilling days, enjoying the constant climbing, never daring to stop the combat life."
"But!" Yang Yan suddenly pointed to the ground, saying seriously, "My roots are here, I still deeply cherish this land. So, whoever wants to destroy it has to ask , the Moonlight, and ask , Yang Yan!"
Xiaocao originally wanted to say sothing more when a low moan suddenly ca.
Wang Xue woke up.
Yang Yan and Xiaocao naturally wouldn't ntion the Hidden World anymore.
He signaled Xiaocao with a glance to quickly take Ruyi away, then sat casually beside Wang Xue as if nothing had happened.
"What's wrong with ?"
Wang Xue held her drowsy head, looking at Yang Yan with so surprise, frowning as she asked.
"You accidentally fell into the lake just now. Luckily, I pulled you out in ti. Otherwise, you wouldn't have woken up."
Yang Yan said calmly.
"How co you're here?"
Wang Xue asked again.
"I was originally coming to ask if you could give a driving license directly, and I happened to see you fall in the lake, so I hurriedly brought you up, and we ended up here."
Yang Yan made it up on the spot.
"Ah!"
Wang Xue exclaid, hurriedly checking her clothes.
Seeing they weren't ssed up, she sighed in relief.
"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing? Don't you trust at all?"
Yang Yan, of course, knew what she ant and asked, sowhat upset.
"Didn't you say I fell in the lake? Why aren't my clothes wet?"
Wang Xue frowned, suspiciously asking.
"You just slipped and fell by the lakeside. I don't know what kind of constitution you have, but you passed out just like that. When I brought you up, only your feet were wet."
Yang Yan explained without batting an eye.
"Oh!"
Wang Xue responded, then held her head, contemplating sothing.
Sigh!
This is so damn tiring.
Yang Yan lanted in his heart.
Telling one lie requires countless others to cover it.
He's truly experiencing it now.
But with matters concerning the Hidden World, he had to deceive her.
Otherwise, her questions would surely be endless.
"Where are Yajie and the others? Have they gone back?"
Wang Xue thought for a long ti, seemingly not finding any flaws, and turned to ask again.
"They went to KTV to sing. They're probably still waiting for you!"
Yang Yan replied.
"How can you let them go to KTV alone as a man! That place is chaotic, and if sothing happens to them, what should we do? No way! We must head over there imdiately."
With that, Wang Xue's spirit seed to recover imdiately.
She grabbed the steering wheel, started the car, and sped towards the KTV.
At this ti, the stone in Yang Yan's heart finally settled a bit.
At least Wang Xue was no longer asking questions, and he didn't have to keep making up lies to deal with it.
Driving in the city is not a race track, Wang Xue maintained the fastest speed without exceeding the limit or breaking any rules.
Fortunately, it was already early morning, and the road conditions in East Sea City were good, so there was no traffic jam.
However, the noise from Wang Xue's "Little Wild Bull" attracted quite a few eyes.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Wang Xue and Yang Yan arrived at the entrance of the KTV where Shiya Jie and others were.
Before they even entered, sounds of chaos ca from inside.
"Could it be them? I'm really a jinx!"
Wang Xue said as she ran inside.
Yang Yan followed closely behind.
At this mont, Yang Yan's phone in his pocket abruptly rang.
Taking a look, it was Zhou Hanyu calling.
Calling at this ti, while it's so chaotic inside…
Sigh!
Wang Xue really is a jinx!
Yang Yan didn't answer the phone but followed Wang Xue inside.
Many of the waiters inside were quietly discussing sothing.
Yang Yan perked up his ears to listen, who else could it be but Shiya Jie and the others in trouble!
"Those beauties are so unlucky, running into the East Sea trio; tonight, they're probably not getting away."
"Yeah! They were unlucky enough to bump into Mr. Zhang from the Zhang Family; they likely can't escape tonight."
"But it's alright. They're out for fun anyway. Spending a night with Young Master Zhang won't cost them anything, and they'll get a hefty sum of money by morning."
"What if Young Master Zhang takes a liking to them and marries them into the Zhang Family; they'd rise to higher status like a phoenix, with no worries for the rest of their lives."
"Give a break. With such a playboy, talking about becoming a phoenix is a joke! Rember that girl last ti?"
"No, what happened exactly?"
"What else? She was seduced, then given tens of thousands by him, and she refused, going straight to the police. And what happened after that?"
"Exactly! Nothing happened to him. That poor girl was gang-raped by Mr. Zhang's people and finally jumped off a building. It's tragic!"
"I'm not hoping for any status. I just wish to spend my life peacefully with soone who loves and cherishes ; that's enough."
"You've got the right idea. I have faith in you!"
Yang Yan leaned over, suddenly interjecting.
